[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family loves tofu. We drop it uncooked in noodle soups, marinate it and toss it with salads, and my kids like it just cubed raw for a snack. However, every time I cook it, I'm disappointed with the outcome. I press it, marinate it, and either bake it or pan fry it (sometimes tossed with cornstarch first, sometimes not) and every time it ends up too chewy and kind of dry and tough.. If I try to cook it less, it ends up just warmed. When I order tofu at Asian restaurants, not deep fried, it has a nice sort-of crust, but is still tender and flavorful on the inside. Any tips/tricks for getting my cooked tofu to stay a nice consistency and not tough and chewy?[/quote] Plus Asian places probably get real deal tofu - not the nasty stuff at the grocery store. years ago, I heard a man in Chinatown sold it homemade, but Im not sure he is still around or does that.[/quote]
